A. Introduction
Early childhood education (PAUD-Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini) is education at the
primary foundation stages of a human being acquiring knowledge before entering further
education, which is held on formal, non-formal, and informal channels. In early childhood, there
is a formation of physical and psychological functions to be ready to receive developmental
stimuli, which are expected to become daily habits in children (Fadhillah, 2019). Developmental
stimulation is very appropriate to be given at this age because this period is very effective and
essential to optimize the various potential abilities possessed by children to become qualified.
(Uce, 2017). Various technology-based tools are widely used by educators, such as laptops and
computers, to support the optimization of the learning process at the PAUD level. Like gadgets
with various features and applications that can provide information about education, socio-
culture, sports, economics, and politics to help human life become more practical and modern.
(Yumarni, 2018). According to the results of research published in the journal Obsession, it shows
that 90% of the rate of smartphone use is familiar to children aged 4-6 years (Zaini & Soenarto,
2019) Learning with computer media creates a pleasant atmosphere because children can control
learning speed according to their abilities. Then the colorful pictures and sounds that appear make
the child not get bored quickly. Besides that, it can stimulate learning to be more diligent, creative,
and independent. The utilization of computer media is one of the alternative media used in
conducting learning to make early childhood more enjoyable (Rochanah, 2016).
The existence of picture storybooks with technology is a natural thing that is liked by
early childhood. The media is also an attractive source of learning at the early childhood level
because stories can be visualized with exciting pictures and animations according to the plot and
background of the story being conveyed. The potential that can be taken from the media of picture
storybooks is that Storytelling is one of the methods often used by teachers in teaching early
childhood education. Picture storybooks have an excellent impact on early childhood. In their
research, Hsiao, Yuan, and Yu Shih found that understanding of the environment around children
can be improved in children through picture storybooks, mainly because it has an impact on
children's daily lives (Hsiao & Shih, 2015). Retnowati et al. also conducted the same study to
know the effectiveness of pictures in reading storybooks to increase kindness in children. The
results concluded a significant difference between the test mean scores and the post-test measure
of goodness. That means reading picture books can effectively improve the well-being of children
aged 5-6 years (Retnowati et al., 2018).
Recent research results (Anggara, 2019) Mentions that the use of powerpoint learning
media can develop cognitive and social aspects of early childhood. The use of power point-based
learning media can develop aspects of cognitive and social development in children. Another
relevant research revealed that through television replica media with three-dimensional images,
children's speaking skills in Daud Khalifatulloh Islamic Kindergarten, Padang developed well.
B. Methodology
The study was conducted from January 2021 to April 2021. The population in this study
used early childhood children from the age range of 4-6 years (kindergarten-age children) who
were randomly distributed. The data collection process was carried out once using a home visit
The data analysis technique for the digital storybook questionnaire with the help of the
Powerpoint application for early childhood was carried out in a quantitative descriptive manner.
The questionnaire scoring method is based on the Guttman scale with a yes answer worth 1 and
a no answer worth 0.
Based on the results of data analysis in table 1.2 above, it can be concluded that the
application of picture storybook media assisted by PowerPoint applications in early childhood
education has a positive impact. This analysis refers to the answers of 46 respondents on each
aspect that shows the positive impact of implementing the use of illustrated storybooks with the
aid of this application. However, a small number of respondents felt that the impact was less than
optimal from implementing the use of picture storybook media with the aid of a PowerPoint
application that was randomly applied to early childhood throughout East Java.
The presence of the digital technology era among pre-school age children is a big
challenge and more attention for parents, teachers, schools, governments, and other agencies in
guiding them. Parents need to feel various kinds of impacts when using technology such as
gadgets (Kamilah et al., 2020). This is done to provide learning innovations in the field of early
childhood education in order to follow the direction of the development of an increasingly modern
era.
The use of illustrated storybook media with the help of PowerPoint applications is a
breakthrough in the development of early childhood learning media. This PowerPoint application-
based learning media innovation follows the world of children in the 4.0 era, where children in
that era are closely related to the world of technology. This era of development should be used as
a momentum for both teachers and parents to integrate learning content through science and
technology-based media such as illustrated storybooks with the help of this PowerPoint
application.
The use of hard file illustrated storybooks shows the teacher's lack of creativity in utilizing
learning media in the PAUD field. Research result from Amelia (Amelia, 2012) Shows that one
of the obstacles faced by Early Childhood Education Tutors in preparing lesson plans is selecting
media, methods, and learning resources that do not vary. The use of book media in the 4.0 era is
seen as irrelevant to the world of today's children, who tend to use gadgets to learn. This is as a
D. Conclusion
Based on the results of the study, it showed that the application of children's storybooks
to early childhood from 6 instruments distributed to the community, in this case, represented by
PG-PAUD UTM students, showed that it was effortless to apply storybooks using technology to
early childhood in terms of listening skills. Children will be very interested when a teacher or
parent presents a storybook using technology with a smartphone or laptop. The PowerPoint
